✍️ Sample AZ-800 Questions & Answers
1. Which DNS record type would you create in Azure DNS to specify the mail servers responsible for accepting email for a domain?
MX (Mail Exchange) records direct email traffic to designated mail servers for a domain.
2. A Traffic Manager profile uses Geographic routing. Which behavior occurs if no geographic mapping covers a user's region?
With Geographic routing, if no mapping matches the user's location, Traffic Manager returns NXDOMAIN, so every region must be explicitly mapped.
3. Which next hop type in a UDR is used to silently drop (blackhole) matched traffic?
The None next hop type discards all traffic matching the route prefix, effectively creating a blackhole to block unwanted traffic.
4. What record type should you create in Azure DNS to delegate a subdomain zone to another set of name servers?
An NS (Name Server) record delegates authority for a subdomain to the specified name servers.
5. What network security recommendation should be applied to the AzureBastionSubnet NSG to allow the Bastion control plane?
The AzureBastionSubnet NSG must allow inbound HTTPS (port 443) from the GatewayManager service tag for Azure Bastion control plane communication.
6. Which Azure Load Balancer SKU supports availability zones and global load balancing?
The Standard Load Balancer SKU supports zone-redundant and zonal frontends, SLA guarantees, and cross-region (global) load balancing.
